Wiping over the outer instead of the inner pair of socks

A: First: If one puts on his socks while in a state of Taharah (ritual purification), then invalidates his Wudu' and puts on another pair of socks, he should wipe over the first pair; for it is the pair that was worn while in a state of Taharah.Second: If one puts on two pairs of socks while in a state of Taharah and then invalidates his Wudu' and removes the outer pair, it is permissible to wipe over the inner pair of socks, as it was worn while in a state of Taharah.May Allah grant us success. My peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
